Acting Tips

Hey Everyone!

So have i mentioned that i love acting? Cause I DO! I think it is the best thing EVER! Here are some tips so you can be a better actor/actress:

1. Learn acsents
You never know what roles there are involving acsents. You may want a role but not get it because you dont have te right acsents!
2. Reaserch your role
You never know what your getting into. My acting teacher said that she once got a role that she knew nothing about. And she had to do somethings she diddnt want to do.
3. Be creative
You dont want to just stand there with a blank look on your face, have emotions!
4. Memorize
Memorize you skript.
5. Have personality
You may be a great actor but you have not got a chance at getting a role if you have no personality.

Hope these helped with your acting skills

Singing tips

Hi Everyone!,

I LOVE singing alot. So here are some tips I use while singing...

1. Have lots of energy! Even if its a slow song!
2. If your sitting, sit straight up on the edge of your chair.
3. Over pronounce your words. Sometimes we get caught in the music and someone out there dosent know the song. So the wont be able to tell what you are singing.
4. You dont look stuipid. So many talented singers just let there talent go down the drain. All because of when they get on stage or at an audition they are afraid that they will look stuipid. If you do this than so many people will never know your true talent. I have done this quite a bit and it is teribble! So just relax and show people what you can do!
5. Drop your jaw! So many people have great voices only you can understand what they are saying because their jaw is not dropped!

Hope this helped with your singing(:

Dance Wear!

Hello Everyone,

If we have any dancers out there than they know what I am about to say. Dance wear is very important. Here is a list of what you should NOT wear:

1. Anything that costs alot of monet
Things can be easily stolen or forgoten
2. Jewelry
Things can easily fall off while dancing and can cause either danger or distraction.
3. Bulkey clothes
Always have something that shows your legs, it is easier to see what your body is doing. Unless your doing Hip Hop.
4. Shoes that will mark the dance floor
Well...there is really not alot of explaining to do on that one(:

And here is a list of what you SHOULD wear:
1. Jazz Shoes
There are way easier than tennis shoes and this may sound stuipid but they make you feel like your the best dancer!
2. A T-shirt or fitted top
Long sleeves will obviously make you hot. I prefer a fitted top because than your shirt is not loose and flopping around.
3. Shorts/legging/short skirt
Shorts or leggings are good for about any kind of dance. A skirt is only for ballet.
4. Thin socks
With Jazz shoes you dont have to wear socks. But if you have to wear tennis shoes make sure to wear thin socks. This helps prevent nasty,stinky,gross feet(:

Hope this helped with your dancing wordrobe(:

OOMPA LOOMPA

Hey Everyone!,

Not to long ago I was in a play called Willy Wonka. I was one of the top oompa loompas(: The top oompa loompas got solos and got to move platforms in every sceen. You would think finding your character would be easy but it wasent. Every oompa got a candy. They were suppost to model that candy and act like it. I was Runts. Of course Runts means "Short". But the tricky part was, i was not the shortest. So I would make myself look diffrent from the rest! And that is what I did! Willy Wonka was a very fun musical! I really hope I can do something like it again!!!

Dr. Foster

Hi Everyone!,

In May I was involved in a play called Law In Order: Nursery Rhyme Unit. In the play I was a support group leader for the nursery rhyme characters. My name was Dr. Foster. So I figured that what i needed to do was figure out who my character was. I couldn't really research her on the computer because she is not a nursery rhyme character. But what i could do was make up my own character. So i sat down with myself and made ideas. What i figured was that she was bullied because she was not a nursery rhyme character like everyone else. So she started the support group, mostly because she could be around others that made her problems not look so bad. It is good to research your character mentally in acting. It can help you develop that person in your mind and on stage. You can also do this even if your character really exists. It will always help get into character. So next time you have a role do this sometimes even before shows. So when you get on stage you can be one of the best! :)

Hi Everyone,
I'm new to Blogging so if I'm not the greatest, go drink your haterade somewhere else.(: I have been involved in Triple Threat at D'Alto Studio of Performing Arts for a really long time now. I am enjoying it so much too! For those of you that don't know, Triple Threat is Acting, Singing, and Dancing all in one. My classes are Saturday 10am-12:30pm and I think they are paying off. Since I have been there I have been in two plays so far:
in Law In Order: Nursery Ryme Unit I played Doctor Foster. (Posting about the role later) and in Willy Wonka I played one of the 5 opmpa loompas (also posting about the role later)
It was really great experience for me and I hope to be in more shows.(:
Well, I hope you enjoy my blogs and I will do my best to keep you updated on tips for Acting, Singing, and Dancing! I will also tell you about experiences I had with these things.(:
